The collection is strongest on the young Picasso: the paintings he made as a teenager in Barcelona, the Blue Period, and the late series of variations on Velázquez’s Las Meninas. The buildings, medieval palaces joined together, are worth the visit on their own. Book a timed ticket online, then walk a few doors up the street to El Xampanyet.
